Sure, not related directly to LARCT.
Anyway, "Debugging" finished! :)
Problem solved, with some help from samba list.

If this is not a NeverAskedQuestion and somebody else needs the info:

You have to start the smb deamons with different .conf files, setting 
different parameters for these:
- Interfaces, using "interfaces ="
- IP addresses, using "socket address ="
- log files directories, using "log file ="
- lock directories using "lock directory ="
(*) that was what i was missing that...
(Martin, you were wrong about the pid files, there are smb.pid and nmb.pid 
files for every deamon)
- and offcourse use "bind interfaces only = yes"

Then you can define different directories to share, in the different conf 
files. They will be served from different smb deamons, which can also be 
different hosts or (YES!) different IPs.
It works.

Now i try following:
Let's say i give max 10Mbps bandwidth to the folder where i keep video 
files. Can i change this dynamically?
Like this: if another user tries to access another video file, increase the 
bandwidth for this IP to 20Mbps.

Or if this is not possible, dynamically sharing the 10 Mbps bandwidth, %mbps 
for each user.

Is something like this possible with Linux QoS?
